Zubereitung von Backpacker's Beef Jerky
- In a large zip-top bag, combine all marinade ingredients: Whisk together the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using).
- Add the 2 lbs beef strips to the bag, ensuring they are fully coated in the marinade.
- Seal the bag tightly and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably 12 hours for maximum flavor infusion.
- Remove beef strips from the bag and thoroughly pat them dry with paper towels. This step is crucial for even drying.
- Arrange the beef strips in a single layer on your dehydrator trays, ensuring they are not overlapping.
- Dehydrate at 160°F (71°C) for 8-12 hours, or until the jerky is completely dry and leathery to the touch. Check frequently, as dehydration times vary depending on your dehydrator and thickness of beef strips.
